Photography is a form of art, and I believe the process of creating a piece of art should be as meaningful as the art itself. This means that I'm not a "shoot-and-burn" photographer. I try to create meaningful experiences for my clients and guide them along the whole process. So, you may be asking,
"What's the difference between a 'shoot-and-burn' photography experience and your experience?"
Well, let me explain it here:
Characterized by high-volume sessions with minimal client contact, final product is onlydigital files
WHAT IS IT?
Characterized by relationship-building with each client, ending with unique, custom products

Minimal. Show up to session, recieve pictures
CLIENT RELATIONSHIP
A lot of time is spent with each client developing ideas and relationship. They basically become family.
SHOOT+BURN PHOTOGRAPHY EXPERIENCE
MY BOUTIQUE PHOTOGRAPHY EXPERIENCE
Very transactional. Client sits for photo session, pays, and gets digital files
CLIENT EXPERIENCE
High-touch. Time is spent with the client planning out their photo session and holding their hand throughout the process

Very little customer service needed.
CUSTOMER SERVICE
Satisfaction guranteed. A high level of customer service

The only option is digital images, typically with use restrictions.
PRODUCT SELECTION
Heirloom products (prints, canvas prints, metal prints, coasters, pillows, mouse pads, you name it, we can most likely make it!)

The lowest priced photographer typically wins. Very competitive and has low attention to detail.
